Top-seeded Caroline Wozniacki was forced to retire from her semi-final match
against Vera Zvonareva at the Family Circle Cup after injuring her right
ankle.

The Danish No 1 was trailing 4-2 in the first set when she slid for a drop shot and injured her foot on the clay. She was assisted to her chair and got her ankle taped.

To cheers from the crowd, Wozniacki returned to the court at Daniel Island. But after Zvonareva held to go up 5-2, Wozniacki double-faulted at 15-15 and retired. Wozniacki was looking for her second straight tournament win, after a victory last week at Ponte Verde Beach, Florida.
